Create a video clip

You can clip any video on demand (VOD) with the your JWP dashboard. If you use the Live Channels product, you can clip excess content from the start and end of the Live Event video once the event has ended.

📘

• Only videos that have MP4 format originals with the H.264 codec and ".mp4" file extension can be clipped.
• Media ID does not change when creating a video clip.
• Although an original file can be retrimmed in the future, JWP does not store an original file in its exact form. Therefore, you should retain your original files locally.
